Yep... this was more or less my idea!!     Seriously, I've been thinking along the same lines, eyeing an old bug floorpan my bro dragged home decades ago and never did anything with, and my well worn 1980 GS1000. More recently I got a Honda 500, one of the V-twin water cooled bikes with the cylinders to the sides and shaft drive, and started thinking "1935 Morgan replica", using the Bug front suspension and running a long shaft between engine and swing-arm, use the Honda swing-arm and rear wheel instead of a chain drive like the original Morgan...

Great job on yours! A motorcycle for those without balance... or a screaming little hot rod?
